frown AUII Straight Six leaking coolant problem - Help

I need some opinions on the source of a dramatic coolant leak.
Vehicle is a AUII manual six, running on gas.
Problem: Very excessive coolant leak, as in it literally runs out as it's filled.
The point where it exits is actually from the holes in the bottom of the gearbox (5 speed manual) bellhousing where it bolts to the motor. There is no signs anywhere of any coolant outside the motor, from any of the welsh plugs visible, this is the only place it comes out. So it seems it's leaking into the bellhousing somewhere....
Where inside there could the coolant be coming from? It's got me stuffed...........

on the back of the engine block there is a welch plug, failing that check the heater hose that runs around the back of the block
